Hand #212: Sylvia Misses His Flush Draw

Level 38 : 400,000/800,000, 100,000 ante

Jake Balsiger had the button. He raised to 1.6 million, and Jesse Sylvia reraised to 3.9 from the big blind. Balsiger called.

The flop came down {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts}, and Sylvia bet 4.1 million. Balsiger called.

The {K-Spades} landed on the turn, and Sylvia checked. Balsiger checked behind.

The river was the {Q-Spades}, and Sylvia reached for chips. He bet 9.4 million, and Balsiger had a decision. After about 30 seconds, Balsiger called.

Sylvia turned over the {J-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a missed flush draw, and Balsiger won the pot with a rivered two pair holding the {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}.
